Additional Grounding Consideration
This device should not need additional chassis grounding in most installation situations. If you experience
interference, you can use the grounding screw on the housing to connect the device to the water ground of the
boat to help avoid the interference.

Power Considerations
While you can turn the GSI 10 device off and on using the power key, the it will likely not be easily accessible to
do so. You should install a switch on the power cable to turn it on and off.
When power is applied to the device, it turns on. You cannot disable the automatic power-on feature.
